At Ultimate Puppy, we believe in sharing what we know. We know that training a puppy during the first 16 weeks of his life will have a lasting impact. We know it’s much easier to live with a happy, well-adjusted dog than an out-of-control one. We follow a science-backed approach that’s mixed with lots of heart. We believe in audacity. We believe in clarity and good design. We believe in having fun and living the best life possible. Why not offer the same life for our dogs?

We have decided to web-publish the Ultimate Puppy Toolkit for anyone to use. We will not be sponsoring this site with advertising. We may at some future date decide to republish the kit in a print version or we may offer other web based “Pro” versions of Ultimate Puppy to help finance the web site. But we will not be advertising.
